Covehithe in Suffolk is in the top 10 best picnic spots in the UK!

Covehithe in Blythburgh, Suffolk has been voted as one of the best picnic spots in the UK!

‘It’s a place of melancholy that teaches you what it means to be alive,’ opines the novelist Blake Morrison about this beach north of Southwold. All roads to Covehithe lead – literally – to the sea, as each year the North Sea claims another few feet. From the half-ruined church to the salt-worn trunks of a clifftop copse, coastal erosion lends ‘a beauty of decay’, as Morrison puts it. Part of the glory is that there are no facilities: pack a picnic and follow The Crumbling Cliffs of Covehithe Walk.
